What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

I like that it is set in the Pacific NW.

What does Becca Battoe bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I was surprised after reading all the horrible reviews on her narration because I think she was pretty good and I am a narrator snob. I am reading the third book on my Kindle and it is not as enjoyable as listening to Becca Battoe reading it.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The end, made me want to listen to next book right away just to see what happens.

Any additional comments?

Becca Battoes narration is not bad, listen to the sample and you can hear for yourself.

If you are an adult woman who liked the Twilight series or romance novels, there is a good chance you will like this book. If you do not fall into that category, read at your own risk. It takes a few chapters for the book the develop, so give it a chance.

Would you be willing to try another one of Becca Battoe’s performances?

I typically only listen to audio books since they allow me to double task. Unfortunately, this audio version was horrible. So bad, in fact, that I gave up, bought the kindle version, and read my first book in years. The voice was so whiny and catty, not at all as I imagined the main character to be like, and her male voice impersonation didn't help his character development at all. Plus, it made the poor writing more noticible.

I have listened to over 700 audio books in the last 20 years. This is by far the best series I have heard. Now if you don't like erotic romance this is not for you. No other series has actually had me go seeking out my husband for private time.

What made the experience of listening to Fifty Shades of Grey the most enjoyable?

it wasn't

What did you like best about this story?

A good book. A great read. A great story overcoming the trama of our lives against our future growth.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

the cocky childish inflection of the narrator really dimished my enjoyment of this audible. I have read all 3 books. I enjoy rereading and thought I would try audible. The narrator ruined it for me. Also the stupid inflection immitating Christian's voice made it utter rediculous. It reminded me of listening to stories in Kindergarten with the inflection.... that is if you can imagine your kindergarten teacher reading erotica. Just didn't compute.
